We received unofficial information, that Hans Petter Dalby seems to be catching up to Harald Tunheim on his way over the mountains from Sirbma to Levajok. Two different headlights have been observed, close to each other and with the same speed.

This means that either Dalby has been going very fast on this stage of the race or that Tunheims dogs are not able to keep up the high speed they had until now. Or both things at the same time. In any case, the fight for the lead is intensifying and nothing can be taken for granted anymore.The big question is now how much power is left in the teams when they reach Levajok soon.

Latest: At this moment our informers have observed that the first team has reached the river about 5km from the checkpoint in Levajok.
